Magical Tree House Rental near Kansas City for Glamping in Missouri

Magical tree house nestled among oaks on our beautiful 200-acre national park-esque ranch fringed in gorgeous limestone boulders. There is also a spring-fed 15-acre private lake with outdoor living area and sand beach at the front of the property. Great for swimming, kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding and excellent fishing. We are 5 minutes from downtown Excelsior Springs, Excelsior Springs Golf Course and 3EX municipal airport. We live on-site and will generally be available throughout your stay should you need or desire.



Our magical, light-filled tree house is nestled among beautiful oak and sycamore trees perched above an ephemeral rock creek. The room includes a new Oeko-Tex talalay latex queen bed with plush bedding, rugs, card table stored under the bed and reading chair with lamp as well as two verandas with lounge chair and tables. A lithium generator is provided for lighting, phone/tablet charging and the huge ceiling fan for keeping comfortable on warmer days. The three windows that open include screens to keep the tree house bug-free. For the chillier months we have installed a propane fireplace that keeps the tree house very (very) toasty and romantic. There is a french press for morning coffee and a glass and ceramic water dispenser of filtered drinking water. You can heat water for coffee, tea or hot cocoa with the kettle on the propane burner on the deck which is also great for cooking breakfast or other meals in the cast iron skillet. We also have coolers and ice available upon request (for a small fee). Outside there is a bistro table for relaxing and enjoying the forest scenery and wildlife. The site is secluded but we have improved the gravel road and most guests may follow us almost all the way down to the tree house. If you do not have an all wheel drive or 4x4 vehicle we are happy to take you and your gear down to the treehouse in our Ranger ATV. :) We are available to drop you off before 7 pm and to pick you up after 7 am.



While the treehouse does not have indoor plumbing there is a cute wooden outhouse located near the foot of the treehouse stairs. It includes a modern composting toilet (Natures Head). It is extremely clean and easy to use. The outhouse also has a small sink with soap and water for handwashing and such. In addition there is a large stone fire pit (firewood is available for sale for $15 for a large bundle or you are welcome to bring you own) and national park style charcoal grill.



Guest access



The tree house is nestled deep in the woods which have improved trails throughout for your enjoyment. I am happy to send you an AllTrails map I have made of the property. You are also welcome to come up to the lake and enjoy the covered outdoor room with couches, lounge chairs and television. It is a wonderful place to enjoy a movie, game or sit and watch the rain (or snow!) fall on the lake. There is a sand beach, swim/fishing dock and boat house (where the kayaks and paddle boards are tied up) just below the outdoor room or in the nearby boat house as well. It is a public space so may run in to some other guests or ourselves relaxing there from time to time, but it is generally pretty quiet. Also, quiet hours at the outdoor room begin at dusk and for safety reasons we do ask that guests leave lakefront area an hour after sunset. :)
